(WASHINGTON, D.C.) - Indiana Senator Richard Lugar is calling on Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to “redouble his efforts” to win the release of two kidnapped fox news journalists.

In a letter to Abbas, Lugar and Delaware Senator Joseph Biden say governments are responsible for doing everything in their power to ensure foreign journalists can operate freely.
